SGHUYLER S. CASE, OF INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA.

IRONING-TABLE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 224,995, dated March 2, 1880. Application filed November 3, 1879.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SGHUYLER S. CASE, of Indianapolis, county of Marion, and State of Indiana, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Ironing-Tables, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying. drawings.

My invention relates to improvements in ironing-tables, in which the frame is composed of two folding standards having perforated cross-pieces to receive the pin-bearings at the ends of a pair of uprights. which are united together by a central braced bar; and the object of my invention is to provide an adjustable folding frame or stand for supporting a detachable ironing board, and which at the same time may be adapted to various positions in a room. I attain this object by the mechanism illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which like letters of reference in the different figures indicate like parts.

Figure 1 represents a perspective view of my improved device. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the braced central frame, with upright pivot-connections for the legs of the device.-

Referring now to the drawings, A A represent the standards or legs of the table, each formed of two pieces of wood in the shape of an X. The upper inner sides of each leg are provided with cross'pieces D D, with apivothole in each to receive the upper pins, P and E, of the upright pivot parts F F of the central frame, B. The lower ends of the standards A A are also provided with cross-pieces I I, to receive the lower ends of the upright pivot parts F F of the central frame, B, as shown.

The central frame is composed of the central part, B, the two vertical end pieces, F and F, and the bracesG G. The upper and lower ends of the upright F are provided with pinbearings P P, which fit and operate in holes in the upper and lower cross-pieces, D and l. The upper and lower ends of the upright F are also provided with like pin-bearings P and E, to operate in the cross-pieces D and I but the upper pin, E, not only operates in the cross-piece D, but projects above said crosspiece, forming a pivot-support for the ironingtable (I, as shown.

The vertioalparts F F and central bar, B, are firmly braced by the braces G G, as shown.

It is obvious that when the legs A A are secured to the brace B F F, as before described, the ends may be turned or twisted to any desired angle required, and that the table 0 may be at all times supported on the upper ends of the legs or cross-pieces D D in such a manner as to be removed or adjusted at pleasure.

What I claim as new is In an ironing-table, the frame composed of having holes to receive the bearings of the uprights F F, combined with the central brace, composed of the bar B, the two vertical uprights F F, having pins or pivots P, P, P and E at their opposite ends, and the braces the standards A A, the cross-pieces D D I I,

G G, all constructed and arranged substantially as described, for the purpose specified.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
